A Puppet Show

WALT create and perform a puppet show. 

Room 10/11 had a great opportunity to create and perform a puppet show from scratch! They had to write the script, make the stage and props such as a butterfly, a cocoon, a caterpillar and different types of foods. They practised for a few weeks and developed their acting and understanding of stage performance. Take a look at Kohen's group’s performance.

Book Character Dress Up Day!

On Thursday 21 November, Room 10/11 had a fun day dressed up as their favourite book characters. There were princesses, witches, wizards, Hairy Maclary and many other characters from different books! It was great to see the love of reading and making a connection to those characters. Well done Room 10/11 for your amazing effort and costumes! 

WALT use a number line to solve addition and subtraction equations

In Maths, we have been learning how to use a number line to count backwards and forwards to solve equations. We have also learnt how to look for the important information in word problems to help us solve the question. 

We are learning to draw a sea lion.

Room 10/11 have made the Sea Lion artwork for the Art Show that is taking place in Term 3 Week 9. We observed different features and postures of the sea lion and learned to draw it step by step to make our own sea lions. Then we made our background by blending different shades and tints of blue. We also made rocks by scrunching up some brown paper.

Poetry Recital

I am learning to read and recite a poem of my choice. 

In Year 2, we have been learning many different poems. We had to choose a poem that we liked and had time to practise it in class and at home. 

We had to work on the following:

- Body Language and Eye contact - Standing still and looking at the audience. 

- Fluency - Speaking at a medium pace. 

- Clarity - Making sure we are speaking clearly. 

- Preparation - Knowing my poem when reading it. 

- Volume - Making sure I am talking so that everyone can hear me.
